Gemma Owen has banned her celebrity dad Michael from wearing her trademark swimwear.
The Love Island star, 19, launched OG Beachwear – which her mother lists as the director – during the first Covid lockdown in 2020 and is regularly seen posing in bikinis and swimwear on Instagram.
And it looks like the 42-year-old former England international will be modeling for her daughters anytime soon as she declares that ‘no dads are allowed’.
Not good enough: Gemma Owen banned her celebrity dad Michael from wearing her swimsuit
The former Liverpool player said on the Walking The Dog podcast: ‘Well, obviously I tried on a couple of shorts and she said, ‘No dad bargains’. “
“He was banned,” adds Gemma, who has modeled her own creations while looking for love in Majorca.
Michael confirmed: ‘I’m banned – ‘no dad ever wears my shorts’. I was willing to place a large order, but she still said ‘no’. ‘
Gemma’s swimwear business is said to be unprofitable and is actually losing money.
According to The Sun, GRO Clothing Limited’s account received cash from her OG Beachwear line, showing them a loss of £756 in 2021.

Days after we revealed that Gemma’s mom Louise is planning Luca again by starring on the ITV show for the Meet the Parents section.
Sources tell us Gemma seems to have advised her father not to go to Love Island – as her mother is ‘much scarier’.
Retired soccer player Michael announced last week that he will be leaving the Meet the Parents section of the show for his wife Louise while he looks after his horses.
And Gemma’s friends say her Love Island will have Luca facing a fierce match from the football WAG.
Painful: And it looks like the former England international, 42, will be modeling her daughter’s designs anytime soon as she claims ‘no dad’ is allowed
A source said: ‘None of Gemma’s friends are surprised that Louise is the one who would be on the show if asked.
‘Anyone Gemma has ever met has had to impress Louise and she used to see them long before Michael did.
‘Gemma and Louise are extremely close and sociable, so she often gets to meet a lot of the guys she hangs out with.
‘So far she is very impressed with Luca and likes the way he behaves. But she will give him a very intense one when she meets him. Louise is very straightforward and doesn’t throw any punches. If she doesn’t like someone, she will tell. It was a trait that Gemma had inherited. ‘
Tension: It comes days after we revealed that Gemma’s mum Louise is planning Luca again by starring on the ITV show for the Meet the Parents section
Recent reports also suggest that Luca may be invited on a summer vacation the family has planned to go to Dubai.
Louise opened up on Instagram this week about how much she misses her daughter.
In one post, she shared a snap of them together and said she can’t wait to see her again.
The pair had been in business together not long before Gemma left to star in the ITV show.
She and Luca are among the most favorite couples to win.
Love Island airs at 9pm on weekdays and Sundays on ITV2 and ITV Hub channels. Episodes are available the next morning on BritBox.
